Online recruitment doesn’t happen magically. There are so many layers of processes that go behind it. Pre-screening, interview management, candidate screening, and candidate onboard, all make up this wonderfully complex, but simple process.
In today’s digital world, there are so many excellent online tools that boost recruitment. If these digital tools were our common household tools, this is what they would be:
- Social Media AKA the toolbox: A toolbox is essential in every household. It solves a wide variety of problems. It, in fact, houses all the tools that you need, is very compact, and can be taken on the go. Social media is the same, it can host current openings, summarize the organization, and even engage the audience. Be it Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, or Twitter, every tool is precious.
- Blogs AKA tape measure: Blogs are mainly for engaging the audience through chat and comments. The best part about blogs is that they can be used to put any kind of information out there, it’s just so flexible. Just like a tape measure, a blog page can help you measure out your audience and cater to them accordingly.
- Alumni Network AKA flashlight: The power of an alumni network, like a flashlight, is underrated. Everyone notices it, only when things get dark. A solid alumni network connects potential candidates with their peers and old friends and proves to be a great segue into different areas within the industry.
- Online assessment tools AKA wrench: Just like a wrench helps in tightening loose fittings, online assessment tools help in polishing and tightening a profile. From aptitude tests and psychometrics to understanding job knowledge, online assessment ensures screening at scale and can help find the right person for the job.
- Internal referrals AKA pliers: Pliers are one of the most effective, yet underappreciated tools in a household, just like referrals. Attractive referral policies with monetary incentives can bring quality and culturally fit candidates. Do not skip on the referral programs, just like a plier.
- Job boards AKA screwdriver set: Every home needs a screwdriver set, just like every organization needs job boards. These are websites for recruiters to post jobs and receive applications. They bring better overall clarity and can help fine-tune the company requirements.
- Company website AKA utility knife: A company website is the go-place for job seekers, just like a utility knife is a go-to tool for most households. With so many purposes and hidden purposes, a website and a utility knife are the basic essentials. From posting job openings to branding, a website does it all.
- Industry and professional websites AKA duct tape: For super quick fixes, you can have a profile on industry websites wherein you can post current openings. Just like duct tape is a quick-fix essential, a professional website can help bring those very obvious leads.
- Job fairs AKA handsaw: Just like how using a handsaw is taking matters into your own hands, a job fair gives you hands-on experience with live recruitment. A job fair is direct, less intimidating, and does the job wonderfully.
- Automated recruiting AKA hammer: A hammer is the primary tool of the toolbox, and will never go obsolete, just like automated recruiting. With AI-based screening and virtual interview management, automated recruiting is like a hammer, it’s essential, and here to stay.
